Heart Of Haute

Vintage inspired clothing from Heart of Haute

Heart of Haute is an American vintage brand founded by mother and daughter, Mandie Bee and Teresa Becker in 2005.

They started by delivering to 2 local stores from their own home in California. The entire production of their vintage-inspired fashion took place here, with a particular focus on the 1950s and colorful patterns.

In 2008, they moved to an office and warehouse in San Dimas, California with more employees, and today they deliver to hundreds of stores in the USA and the rest of the world, including, of course, Mondo Kaos, which sells Heart Of Haute exclusively in Denmark.

Although Heart of Haute is now a larger enterprise, Mandie and Teresa are proud to still produce all of their beautiful vintage style designs in California.

Heart of Haute – Your clothing philosophy

Heart of Haute is a brand with a mission. Mother and daughter love clothes and therefore they also have a philosophy behind their brand. There is a reason why their vintage-style clothes are beautifully made, adapted to the female body and preferably in beautiful and colorful prints: They believe that the clothes are a way of expressing themselves, and can help to give better self-esteem and maybe even bring joy to the people who see you walking in your unique and colorful clothes.
Who are you today and how do you want to feel? According to Heart of Haute, these are the two questions you should take the time to ask yourself before getting dressed in the morning. Do something for your well-being when you get dressed, that's a philosophy we can only nod to here at Mondo Kaos.

Sustainability and Heart of Haute

With that approach to people, it is clear that Heart of Haute is also concerned with sustainability.

It is no secret that the green transition is on many people's agenda, and it should be. The clothing industry in particular is a big culprit, with fast fashion, cheap prices and the use-and-throw-away culture.

That is why Heart of Haute mostly makes their clothes from natural fibers such as cotton and viscose, i.e. fibers that are biodegradable unlike e.g. polyester. The clothes are naturally of high quality so they last a long time, and remain the same good quality wash after wash.

They pay their employees well and all the beautiful vintage clothing is produced locally in California.

In addition, another major environmental culprit in the clothing industry is the dyeing of clothing. Here, Heart of Haute exclusively uses digital print technology for their beautiful vintage patterns, which means that no water is used in the process. Therefore, the color is not released into the environment and it is also a vegan process. This method meets both the Oeko-Tex 100 and the Global Organic Textile (GOTS) standard.
